King Xiang of the Red Chamber

Chapter 133
Hearing this, Zhu Jinghong felt heartbroken, which made Zhu Jingyuan feel better.

"See the prince!"

The three big bosses of the Supervisor of Rituals bowed down in front of Zhu Jingyuan at this moment.

"Three please stand up!"

"Thank you, prince!"

After getting up, Lu Tong stepped forward and said with a smile: "Prince, let's go in with this old servant, the Lord is still waiting!"

"Yes Yes!"

Zhu Jingyuan responded twice, then walked forward, Gao Shuyan also followed, and the rest of the Donggong scholars returned to the government office.

"Master Thirteen, invite you too!" Dai Quan came to Zhu Jinghong's side.

After pretending to cough twice and clearing his throat, Zhu Jinghong asked, "Eunuch Dai, how is my father feeling right now?"

"The Lord's power is unpredictable, how dare this old slave speak nonsense!"

Zhu Jinghong was unwilling to give up, and asked again: "You have been with the old man for so many years, I don't believe this!"

"Master Thirteen, don't embarrass this old slave!" Dai Quan still did not change his words.

"Eunuch Lu?"

Lu Tong walked in front with the prince, and when he heard the call, he turned around and said, "Master Thirteen, don't worry..."

This is the end?Zhu Jinghong also wanted to hear a few more words from Lu Tong, why he didn't have to worry.

When Zhu Jinghong and his party entered Fengtian Gate, at the palace gate on the east side of the Meridian Gate, Jia Zhenggang, a member of the Ministry of Industry, came out of the Sixth Section Corridor.

The last impeachment event survived as expected, and now Jia Zheng has resumed his official position.

Seeing the prince return with his own eyes, his heart was much more at ease.

"According to Lian'er, Mrs. Xue's family came to Beijing together with the prince. It seems that the prince really intends to support my family!" Jia Zheng whispered.

Although the whole process was arranged by Zhu Jinghong, in Jia Zheng's view, it was the prince's intention. After all, Zhu Jinghong would not have such thoughts.

Thinking of this, the extinguished flame in Jia Zheng's heart was ignited again at this moment.

He can't just sit back and watch the family's decline. Even if his mother and elder brother don't want to help, he has to continue to toss alone, so as to live up to his father's ardent teachings.

Straightening his official hat, holding the official document in his hand, and looking at the tall Fengtian Gate, Jia Zheng walked out of the Meridian Gate.

Besides, Zhu Jinghong and the two walked in for about ten minutes, and they finally came to the gate of Qianqing.

"Prince, Thirteenth Lord, please..."

After saying this, the three of Lu Tong moved aside, and they will not accompany them anymore.

"Thirteenth brother, let's go..."

"Fourth brother, please first!"

"There's nothing to be modest about!" Zhu Jingyuan didn't care.

"The order of the elders and the younger cannot be abolished!"

"You should go first!"

"Fourth brother, it's your fault. I came here with you, of course you invited me first!"

The scene where the two were arguing made the three in charge of rituals want to laugh, but they held back after all.

After all, the two people in front of them are half masters of the imperial palace, and it was their turn to laugh at them, the slaves.

In the end, Zhu Jingyuan still couldn't hold back, and was pushed into the Qianqing Gate by Zhu Jinghong. Gao Shuyan had no call and could only stay in the palace gate.

The Qianqing Palace is the emperor's bedroom, and it is also the place where the daily office and important ministers are received. It can be said to be the center of the entire East Asian world.

The guards here are naturally selected from the best, and 120 people are selected from among the honorable children of the Dragon Guard to serve as guards on duty.

These guards stood on both sides of the royal road, looking at the distressed faces of the two princes, but their faces were expressionless.

Arriving at the base of the Qianqing Palace, the two Zhu Jinghong bowed and stood in silence, waiting for the call of the emperor's father.

After a while, Cheng Ying, the manager, came out and said to Zhu Jingyuan: "His Royal Highness, the Lord has uploaded your audience!"

"Yes!"

Zhu Jingyuan's voice was a little trembling, and he walked into the hall with his head down.

Seeing Cheng Ying standing there, Zhu Jinghong said, "Eunuch Cheng, if there is nothing else, I will go to visit the queen mother!"

"Master Thirteen, the Lord has spoken!" Cheng Ying looked indifferent.

"what?"

Surprised, Zhu Jinghong had no choice but to kneel down, ready to accept the fate arranged by the old man.

"Order...let the old thirteen kneel down for me!"

"Kin this!"

"what?"

Zhu Jinghong raised his head with a look of surprise, what does this mean?
Get yourself down on your knees?Is there anything wrong with me?Even if you make a mistake, you should make it clear. What's the matter?

He punched hard in his heart, but he still had to kneel, so Zhu Jinghong couldn't get up by the way.

In fact, such a situation has been encountered many times before, and it is not a rare thing in itself.

Besides, in the main hall, it was no surprise that Zhu Jingyuan was also kneeling, the two brothers just kneeled in different places.

"Little pirates, the prince has been suppressed for so long, the prince is very capable!"

"My son has betrayed his father's trust!"

As soon as he said a word, the prince began to admit his mistake, and he didn't know how to defend himself, which made Zhu Xianming even more dissatisfied.

"Faithful? Why do I have more faith than you? Have I ever said that?" Zhu Xianming sneered.

"Let you go to suppress the Japanese, toss for a month or two, with ten times the superior force, and finally be defeated across the board..."

"Prince, you really opened my eyes!"

Hearing his father's cynicism, Zhu Jingyuan was terrified but could only bear it, and now he didn't even dare to speak.

Zhu Xianming felt uncomfortable to look at such a weak trash, and he didn't even have the desire to scold at this moment.

"Forget it, you haven't done anything for so many years, you'd better go back and rest!"

Speaking of this, Zhu Xianming raised his voice and said, "Come here, send the prince back!"

"My son...retire!"

Two young eunuchs entered the Nuan Pavilion, supported the prince on the ground, and sent him out of the hall.

"Fourth brother, come out so soon?"

Zhu Jinghong, who was kneeling, was very surprised, but when he thought that the prince was so fast, his matter should be fine.

"Thirteenth brother, I'm going back first, take care of yourself!"

Zhu Jingyuan showed sadness, and walked down the steps extremely lonely.

Besides, in the main hall, Cheng Ying whispered, "Your Majesty, do you want to summon the Thirteenth Lord?"

Zhu Xianming, who was flipping through the memorial, didn't lift his eyes, but said coldly: "Just let him kneel, and no one is allowed to come near!"

"Yes!"

So when Zhu Jinghong knelt, an hour passed directly, and he felt uncomfortable no matter how healthy he was.

"Who the hell, come here... Go tell the empress, I'm going to kneel to death here!"

The little eunuch who was called dared not report the letter, so he could only whisper: "Master Thirteen, the Lord has a strict order, so don't embarrass the slave!"

In fact, the queen in Kunning Palace already knew about Zhu Jinghong being punished to kneel, but at the moment she was pruning the flower branches.

Following beside the queen, Chen Zhi showed worry: "Mother, it's been an hour, and the thirteenth brother hasn't had lunch yet, so don't kneel him down!"

"How about...you go to ask Father for a favor?"

Hearing this, Yang Qingyin didn't care at all, and said slowly: "This little bastard, he doesn't know how to do things properly, so he should be fined, so that he can remember!"

Turning around, taking the teacup from Chen Zhi, Yang Qingyin continued, "What's more, with the body of the old thirteen, it won't hurt to kneel for another hour!"

"That said, but..."

"Okay, no need to say any more!"

Seeing that the queen had made up her mind and said what she had to say, Chen Zhi stopped talking.
